First off, I'd like to thank Ryan for the opportunity to represent Seismic. i wanted to comment on the Aftermath. When I took the ball out of the box, i was like, "wow!" The color of the ball was reallly eye-catching, then after i went out on the lanes, i was even more impressed. The way the ball went down the lane and made such a hard snap to the pocket, it looked like someone was down the lane and kicking it. Also, the way the ball hit was just as impressive. In fact, I enjoyed this ball so much that I drilled a second one, and polished it. I did this so that when the out-of-the-box ball starts to hook too much, I am able to switch to the polished ball and have the same reaction and hitting power that I did with the other ball, without having to move. I strongly suggest, to anyone looking for a skid/soap ball, to invest in an Aftermath !
